SME 3009 Series II Improved Vintage HIFI Audiophile Turntable Tonearm

The SME 3009 is one of the most iconic and enduring tonearms in hi-fi history, originally introduced in the early 1960s by SME (Scale Model Equipment Co.) in England.

The SME 3009 Series II Improved, introduced in the mid-1970s, is a refined, lightweight version of the classic SME 3009 designed to complement the high-compliance moving-magnet cartridges popular at the time (such as the Shure V15 Type III and IV). It retains the hallmark SME precision engineering—knife-edge horizontal bearings and finely calibrated counterweight and anti-skate adjustments—but uses a thinner aluminium arm tube and a lighter counterweight assembly.
